During the 2-hour quad bike adventure, you will be able to admire a lot of unspoilt nature, but there is also a lot of fun to be had when you arrive at the dunes of Cap Sim. This tour is suitable for the whole family. The tour can be customized according to the abilities and wishes of the participants. Before you set off, we will help you choose the right helmet and there will be a short test ride to try out the quad bike and get a few valuable tips. We follow the river Qsob towards the Atlantic. Along the river, you can see and observe many birds. We pass fishermen's huts and reach freshwater springs that spring directly from the beach and help the animals to quench their thirst. Then we come to the large dunes of Cap Sim with its large wind farm and the lighthouse, which can be seen from afar. And, of course, everyone will have fun driving in these dunes. On the way back, you can admire the ruins of the Portuguese castle and the island of Mogador greets you from far away.
